I think Oxytropis endlicheri (Walp.) Bennet and Chandra only (syn: O. polypetala (D. Don) Hook.f. & T Halerpestes won't have more than 10 petals, according to both eFlora of China and eFlora of Pakistan, as well as latest Flora of India. Ficaria based mainly on Ranunculus ficaria, does not grow in India, and does not have more than 10 petals. Also according to Flora of India sepals fall early in Halerpestes, whereas they are persistent and enlarged after flowering. They seem so in first photograph.
